cipso: don't use IPCB() to locate the CIPSO IP option

2015-02-11T19:46:37Z

Using the IPCB() macro to get the IPv4 options is convenient, but unfortunately NetLabel often needs to examine the CIPSO option outside of the scope of the IP layer in the stack. While historically IPCB() worked above the IP layer, due to the inclusion of the inet_skb_param struct at the head of the {tcp,udp}_skb_cb structs, recent commit 971f10ec ("tcp: better TCP_SKB_CB layout to reduce cache line misses") reordered the tcp_skb_cb struct and invalidated this IPCB() trick. This patch fixes the problem by creating a new function, cipso_v4_optptr(), which locates the CIPSO option inside the IP header without calling IPCB(). Unfortunately, this isn't as fast as a simple lookup so some additional tweaks were made to limit the use of this new function.

net: fix cipso packet validation when !NETLABEL

2013-10-19T22:55:42Z

When CONFIG_NETLABEL is disabled, the cipso_v4_validate() function could loop forever in the main loop if opt[opt_iter +1] == 0, this will causing a kernel crash in an SMP system, since the CPU executing this function will stall /not respond to IPIs. This problem can be reproduced by running the IP Stack Integrity Checker (http://isic.sourceforge.net) using the following command on a Linux machine connected to DUT: "icmpsic -s rand -d -r 123456" wait (1-2 min) Signed-off-by: Seif Mazareeb Acked-by: Paul Moore Signed-off-by: David S.

cipso: handle CIPSO options correctly when NetLabel is disabled

2012-06-01T18:18:29Z

When NetLabel is not enabled, e.g. CONFIG_NETLABEL=n, and the system receives a CIPSO tagged packet it is dropped (cipso_v4_validate() returns non-zero). In most cases this is the correct and desired behavior, however, in the case where we are simply forwarding the traffic, e.g. acting as a network bridge, this becomes a problem. This patch fixes the forwarding problem by providing the basic CIPSO validation code directly in ip_options_compile() without the need for the NetLabel or CIPSO code. The new validation code can not perform any of the CIPSO option label/value verification that cipso_v4_validate() does, but it can verify the basic CIPSO option format. The behavior when NetLabel is enabled is unchanged. Signed-off-by: Paul Moore Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

netlabel: Label incoming TCP connections correctly in SELinux

2009-03-28T04:01:36Z

The current NetLabel/SELinux behavior for incoming TCP connections works but only through a series of happy coincidences that rely on the limited nature of standard CIPSO (only able to convey MLS attributes) and the write equality imposed by the SELinux MLS constraints. The problem is that network sockets created as the result of an incoming TCP connection were not on-the-wire labeled based on the security attributes of the parent socket but rather based on the wire label of the remote peer. The issue had to do with how IP options were managed as part of the network stack and where the LSM hooks were in relation to the code which set the IP options on these newly created child sockets. While NetLabel/SELinux did correctly set the socket's on-the-wire label it was promptly cleared by the network stack and reset based on the IP options of the remote peer. This patch, in conjunction with a prior patch that adjusted the LSM hook locations, works to set the correct on-the-wire label format for new incoming connections through the security_inet_conn_request() hook. Besides the correct behavior there are many advantages to this change, the most significant is that all of the NetLabel socket labeling code in SELinux now lives in hooks which can return error codes to the core stack which allows us to finally get ride of the selinux_netlbl_inode_permission() logic which greatly simplfies the NetLabel/SELinux glue code. In the process of developing this patch I also ran into a small handful of AF_INET6 cleanliness issues that have been fixed which should make the code safer and easier to extend in the future.

cipso: Add support for native local labeling and fixup mapping names

2008-10-10T14:16:34Z

This patch accomplishes three minor tasks: add a new tag type for local labeling, rename the CIPSO_V4_MAP_STD define to CIPSO_V4_MAP_TRANS and replace some of the CIPSO "magic numbers" with constants from the header file. The first change allows CIPSO to support full LSM labels/contexts, not just MLS attributes. The second change brings the mapping names inline with what userspace is using, compatibility is preserved since we don't actually change the value. The last change is to aid readability and help prevent mistakes. Signed-off-by: Paul Moore
